From the available documentation, here are your options for working with variables and blocks in Prefect:
### Variables
Variables in Prefect are used to store non-sensitive bits of data, such as configuration info. Here's how you can manage them:
1.
Creation and Modification: You can create, read, edit, and delete variables via the Prefect UI, API, and CLI.
2.
Export/Import: The documentation does not provide an out-of-the-box method to export and import variables directly between Prefect servers. You might need to manually export the configurations and reapply them to the new server.

### Blocks
Blocks are primitives in Prefect that store configuration and provide interfaces for interacting with external systems. They can be securely stored and configured through code or the Prefect UI.
1.
Manage via UI or Code: Blocks can be configured via the Prefect UI and Prefect server UI, or through code.
2.
Export/Import: Similar to variables, there isn't a direct method for exporting/importing blocks. You need to manually configure them in the new server.

Unfortunately, there isn't a straightforward method provided for exporting and importing variables and blocks between Prefect servers. You might need to script these operations using the Prefect API to automate the process.
